transformation : set a field value according to the host

I'd like to set at search_time a new field, with a value according to the host :

if host=abc.com then =test
elseif host=bbb.com then =prod

Is it possible to make if statement in the inline field of the transformation ? How do it would look like ?

I believe using tags would be ideal in this case.

Thanks, it is what I was searching for.
But I couldn't find the way how to print the tag-name in the result ? By default the hostname is printed... ?
